The mound itself raises at about 15 m (49 ft) and it is serviced by an accessible staircase that leads to the crater, which can accommodate about 10 to 15 people at a time; there, tourists bathe in the dense warm mud and have the option of receiving personal massages from the attendants. The experience is then followed by a bath to remove the mud in a nearby lagoon.

I remember the time you get to the Caribbean coast with my parents and we appointed a very tourist site near Barranquilla, his name was the volcano's totumo immediately thought about visiting simply   
because his name caught my attention.
After a long work can convince my parents that we were so they decided to leave after 

lunch. We indication routes and went straight to the volcano, which was not even in the plans of our walk, on arrival we were terrified of how big it was, we climbed the steps that were very long indeed, and we arrived at the Crater find the big surprise of it was mud and people were stuck just like a swimming pool, was the most incredible people know that floated without any problem and despite the depth so great, not ran any risk getting to bathe in it. At first I was scared because it looked like we were going to undir so that will not happen, after a while we decided to relax and enjoy the volcano, but the best was the cleaning that we were doing the Indians out of the volcano as it was on a highly crystalline lake with one of the best freshwater Colombia.

Inventions

                                                           DIGITAL CAMERA

A digital camera is a camera that, instead of capturing and storing pictures in chemical films as photographic film cameras, uses the digital photography process to generate and store images.

Modern compact digital cameras are typically multifunctional and contain some devices capable of recording sound and / or video as well as photographs. In this 
case, the device is also called digital camcorder. Currently sold more digital cameras film cameras 35mm.

Eugene F. Lally of the Jet Propulsion Laboratory published the first description of how to produce still photos in digital domain using a photosensor in mosaico.Texas Instruments designed a filmless analog camera in 1972, but it is unknown if it was finally built. The first digital camera recorded was developed by the Kodak company, which commissioned the construction of a prototype engineer Steven J. Sasson in 1975.


In 2003 he introduced the Canon Digital Rebel, also known as the 300D, a camera aimed at consumers in the first 6 megapixel DSLR that had a cost of less than $ 1,000.
